what should be number one on his immigration plan? log on to have that conversation with me. it is #keeptalking. "fox & friends" starts right now with elisabeth. she's back. >> good morning. it is friday, november 14, 2014. i'm elisabeth hasselbeck. a fox news alert for you now. breaking overnight, a military base is under attack. two navy officers were hurt trying to take down an armed man. we have the breaking details for you in just moments. >> and first he called americans stupid and now he's bragging about ripping off the feds. but who exactly is professor jonathan gruber? >> i don't know who he is. he didn't help write our bill. >> she's hilarious. that's not true. and we're going to play some tapes that nancy pelosi wishes we didn't have. >> and forget werewolves in

london. this morning a tiger is on the loo in one of the world -- is on the loose in one of the world's biggest cities. this morning a hunt is on to find him. mornings are better with friends. >> friends like you. >> studio e as in elisabeth hasselbeck. you are back. >> i love you guys. >> good morning. >> hi, buddy. >> welcome back, elisabeth. >> where you been? >> just hangin' out. i'm so glad and thankful to be back with all of you. i had a bit of a scare. you learn these things. i had a tumor in my abdomen. doctors said you've got to get it out by the end of the month. we don't like how it hooks. i was facing something that could potentially have gone either way. i did what they said. i had a phenomenal surgeon. i had a scary week where we

didn't know what the results were, but i'm okay. everything has gone okay. surgery is not fun but it is necessary to find out if you have something terrible or you do not. thankfully i had the blessing of it not being cancer. a scary one indeed. we had real serious talks at home and honest ones with the kids. i could not be more thankful for my family and my friends who stood by me with support. although you sent me an e-mail, toughen up, girl. you sent me a note. mr. ailes and others treated me like family the entire way. so many girls have stared down that cancer gun but when they got bad news and dodge -- done remarkable

things, courageous things to fight it. and so i knew i would be in their wings and by their example be able to fight it. i didn't get that message from my doctor. i got a clean bill of health. and i'm just, i'm thankful, really thankful. i'm not a person who takes a lot for granted, but i certainly don't take it for granted now. tim, my husband, he was my hospital buddy. friends came to sit with me during ugly hours. i was blessed with the peace in the week where i didn't know what i would be facing and felt as ready as you could feel. i felt such love and support from all of you and all of you watching. >> they sent e-mails all the time, they wondered where you were at. >> kimberly and everyone who sat in for me, heather -- i don't take anything for granted. my kids are watching now.

daddy's making breakfast. tell him not to burn the bagels. i love you all. >> so many prayers for you. >> i'm sorry my palms are sweaty but i know you guys love me like a sister. >> you know what would make you happy right now? >> what? >> cake! we brought you came! >> cake boss? oh my goodness. thank you, cake boss. >> wherever you are. >> thank you. it feels -- i don't like a fuss; you know that. but this is a special day. i'm really, really thankful thank you for giving me the time i needed to recover. before you know it, kilmeade is not here but i'll be whipping on him once i heal some stitches up. additions, i am so happy to

be back on this couch. you guys kept me laughing and smiling the whole time. enough about me, we'll get on to breaking news. >> folks sent some tweets she would love to hear. we're going to share some of those in a little bit. >> thanks for letting me enjoy privacy and quiet while i figured out what my mission was in terms of healing. i really appreciate that. but i would love to hear from you now. thank you. >> the first day you came here, i said this is a family. we really mean it. you're a big part of the family. >> you are absolutely right about that. thank you. i'm so thankful to this network for my friends and family here and all of your support. hey, like i said, i'm healing up so my mission is pure healing and getting fast again. >> time to get back to business. >> that's right. we're going to start with heather childers. >> we're so thankful that you're back and you're healthy. >> i'm thankful for that and happy to see you

starting the day with a smile. >> i'm going to give you a hug in a second but we need to tell but this fox news alert. while you were sleeping a man with a knife tried to enter the same gate at the submarine base in groton, connecticut. two officers were hurt trying to take him down, one stabbed in the leg. right now that suspect is in custody and both officers are out of the hospital. it's being called a comedy of errors. not really funny, the secret service blunders leading to september's white house intrusion. why wasn't an attack dog unleashed on omar gonzalez when he scaled the white house fence? it turns out the agent in charge of releasing that canine had no ear piece in. he was sitting in a van talking on a personal cell phone. it's just one of the many human errors homeland security cites in a brand-new review of the major security breach. >> speaking of cell phones, you're being watched like you never would have imagined. there is a brand-new report

that the justice department is scooping up data from thousands of phones through devices on airplanes flying right offense our -- right over our heads. the it was meant for spying but innocent people caught in the cross-fire. >> nancy pelosi chastising a reporter who asked her about stepping down after democrats failed to capture the senate's majority. pelosi said men previously in her position have never been asked that question. >> when was the day that any of you said to mitch mcconnell when they lost the senate three times in a

ted kennedy has basically figured out a way to rip off the feds about $4,000 a year. what we didn't allow in that room was talk about how could we make this work? obama was like, well, he's really a realistic guy. he's like i can't do this. it is not going to happen politically. the bill will not pass. how do we manage to get through there phases. that opened the genesis of the cadillac tax. barack obama is not a stupid man; okay? he knew when he was running for president that, quite frankly, the american public doesn't actually care that much about the uninsured. what the american public cares about is cost. >> wow, there's a bottom line that is coming up to boil right now. but when asked, nancy pelosi said i don't even know who he is. this man right here who right there admitted that our president understands and is counting on the fact

that americans are too dumb essentially to care, that these americans are going to be snowed by this and there is one way to do it and get the cash? this is what he said, yet nancy pelosi denies she knows who he is. listen to this. >> i don't know who he is. let's put him aside. i don't know if you have seen jonathan gruber in my comparison of what the analysis is to the status quo versus what will happen in our bill. >> you see what this is. i don't know who he is. that was yesterday that she said i don't know who he is. you go back and look at her website, and jonathan gruber, they announce m.i.t. professor jonathan gruber, makes a big thing about him then. speaks about him in 2009 and 2010 as well.

so she must remember. i hope she remembers. to make a long story short, look at what's going on. jonathan gruber first said i made an off the cuff remark. then we have four more tapes of him saying the same thing. this is a huge hoax perpetrated on the american people. the problem is the hoax that they develop, they're all on board with it. nancy pelosi was on board. harry reid was on board. president obama named this guy mr. mandate. everyone knew what was going on except the american people. and that's the sad part. >> coming up in the show, dr. marc siegel is going to speak truth to you and tell you three things changing about the health care plan that you're going to want to know that the administration, at least back then was counting on you not even caring about, and those changes are ultimately so important. we are going to bring them to you today. >> can i bring one thing in? the thing no one talked about is everything he said, the architect was wrong. in the end premiums aren't

going down. they're still going up. they haven't made the costs go down. >> they figured it is in the greater good of the country to get this passed regardless of the cost. curious though, and he's probably going to be called on capitol hill. they're going to have hearings once the senate is taken over by the republicans. he made it very clear he would do any sort of dishonest politicking to get this passed. he's a professor at m.i.t. don't you think those kinds of low standards probably violate some high standard at m.i.t.? >> not if you're tenured. >> there you go. >> that's the guy i want teaching my kids. if they were at m.i.t., that would be fantastic. we're going to include some of your tweets to elisabeth right now. she's been missing. she had an operation. she's cancer free. charlotte says this. it will be so good to see you. missed your smile. >> you are kind, charlotte.

>> lisa says, yay! welcome back girlfriend. >> love the double exclamation. thank you, lisa. i'm so glad to be back. i can't thank you enough. i'm not taking one second for granted. that is why you're going to tell us what's coming up if a few seconds. >> he made headlines when he said he jumped from a balcony to save his drowning nephew. this morning the reason why he made it all up. his race is to blame. >> obamacare architect jonathan gruber's comments may not be the only thing you're going to be offended by when it comes to obamacare. dr. segal in the house. ♪ ♪ells

eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. those three important reasons are why eliquis is a better find for me. ask your doctor today if eliquis is right for you.

basically, you know, call it the stupidity of the american voter or whatever, but that was really critical to get the thing to pass. >> basically obamacare architect jonathan gruber's comments at american stupidity got the law passed, likely not the only thing that is going to offend you this morning when it comes to the so-called affordable care act. this week, tomorrow actually marks the first day of the 2015 open enrollment. and dr. marc siegel,

thankfully on the fox medical a team, is here with us to break it down. >> good morning, welcome back. >> i'm a dummy. tell me what is coming because i clearly don't care, an american voter, and i don't know what is going on. >> so professor gruber doesn't call us stupid again i thought i would tell us what is coming up in 2015. obamacare is infiltrating normal health care tissue. >> how? >> the individual mandate is more than tripling. the penalty you get for not having insurance goes from $95 to $325 per person or 2% of your income, whichever is more. and you know what? for people that don't make a lot of money, that is a lot of money. $325 per person. >> of course. that's a penalty. that's a huge penalty. >> if you're struggling to make it in the midwest somewhere or here in new york, anywhere, you've got a huge, huge burden. and you're going to be paying the 2014 penalty up

front in 2015. you won't get that refund. >> what is happening to that lowest entry level plan now? >> if dr. guber wants you to think your premiums aren't rising, the bronze plan up on average 7% in many states. the low-cost silver plan at the exchanges, 9%. for those of you young people who want that catastrophic plan thinking i'm not going to have to pay for older sick people who are very, very sick, let me tell you something, that's up on average 18%. you're just getting out of college, you haven't made your way yet, guess what? you're paying a fortunate sore that this obamacare can struggle along and try to help people who have very, very bad chronic conditions. >> there are so many people who would opt for that catastrophic insurance. >> if it were cheap. >> not anymore. and those increases are so substantial. what about the employer

mandate? >> that is finally kicking in. now if a company has more than 100 employees, they will get hit $2,000 to $3,000 per employee. if you're a huge employer you know what you're going to do in 2015? get rid of your full-time employees and add part-time employees so you don't have to pay the penalty. that is what many economists predict will happen. that is why i call it a cancer. can you imagine if you work for mcdonald's, employers will say i don't want to pay the penalty. i want part-time employees. >> i bet the heart race has increased across the nation. >> let me treat you and tell you to get rid of obamacare. >> dr. segal, thanks for that. forget wherewolves in london. a tiger is on the loose and the hunt to find him is on.

some headlines for you. hundreds of illegal immigrants locked away in arizona jails cannot seek bail even though voters approved a law that denied bail to illegals charged with felonies like sexual assault and murder. the supreme court just ruled it's a violation of due process rights. also in arizona a border agent safety is in jeopardy because the judge is releasing the name of the agent to the public. the agent shot and killed a teenager two years ago while the teen was throwing rocks at him and other agents trying to take down

drug simulletters. the -- smugglers. the teen's family is suing and the border agent requested to keep his name private for his safety. >> a grad student claims her internship went up in smoke after she disclosed to the employer that she was a medical marijuana patient. christine callahan has now filed a lawsuit claiming discrimination against the rhode island company darlington fabrics for not hiring her. the state legalized marijuana for medical purposes in 2006 but pot is still illegal under federal law. so does she have a case? let's talk to some legal experts? misty maris is an employment attorney taking the side of the attorney. goodmorning brian, taking the side of the law student. brian, the company says we're not going to hire you because you smoke pot and you say that is

discrimination. why? >> we have 23 states with medical marijuana, four of them legalized marijuana. it is clear voters don't want people discriminated against for this. i think morally it is the wrong thing to do. legally rhode island law specifically states you cannot be denied employment because you're a medical marijuana patient. i think she has a very strong case. she's bringing this case in state court where they will be listening to these claims. i think it's clear discrimination. >> i absolutely disagree and the reason being this is a case of first impression in rhode island. what we need to do is look at the way cases have unfolded around the country that deal with the same issue. in that sense, most courts have found that the employer has the right to enact antidrug policies and to require a no tolerance drug policy and to have those policies be abided by. that allows them to keep people who are using marijuana out of the workplace. and that's because the federal law still calls

marijuana illegal. controlled one substance. >> brian? >> again, rhode island law, which is we're in state court in rhode island specifically states people cannot be denied employment for being medical marijuana patients. >> the michigan statute has a system lar, has similar language and the court still found in favor of the employer. still found federal law calls it an illegal substance. >> again, you know, this is about discrimination. do we feel like we should live in a society where sick people are punished for the type of medicine they use? she stated she would not use it at work, would not bring it to work. and rhode island law explicitly protects that. >> i've got a statement from the aclu in rhode island. it reads like this. if employers are permitted to discriminate against those utilizing medical marijuana, then the good work done by those to enact

the law will be completely undone. we cannot let this law become an empty promise. brian, let me ask you about this question. it's a hypothetical. i'm not referring to this particular client. but we all know there are people who are gaming the system to get a doctor to give them pot. that's just the way it is. if an employer realizes that and says, you know, they don't really need the pot. they're just smoking pot and they're standing behind the law, don't you have a problem with that? >> i have a problem with employers pretending that they're doctors. >> what about the people who are pretending they need medical marijuana when they don't? >> there is a very small number of people pretending they need medical marijuana, the same people pretending they need prescription drugs. at the end of the day this case, ms. callahan has migraines. she stated she would not use marijuana at work or bring it to work and the employer still discriminated against her.

>> the employer has an obligation to main feign a safe working -- to maintain a safe working environment. >> this has been a great debate and i thank both of you. thank you very much for joining us today. folks out this in tv land, send us an e-mail. let us know which side you think is the right side. friends@foxnews.com. the v.a. sent a letter to this veteran's wife saying stop cashing your husband's benefit checks because he's dead. that's news to her and the husband. we'll explain. the president vowing to take executive action on immigration immediately, but his right-hand man, harry reid, now not supporting the president. wait a minute? ed henry has got this freakin' development. he's with the president now. first, happy birthday to bill hemmer, look at that! he's 50. happy birthday, bill. ♪ ♪

the u.s. senate has been holding hearings on the ebola crisis. and although the debate got pretty heated at times, they're finally starting to agree on things. let's check in and see how things are going. >> i'm going to ask senator shaheen, chair of the subcommittee on legislative affairs, to call the superintendent and ask that the air conditioning be turned off. i left 45 minutes ago -- >> i would be delighted to do that, madam chair. i have tried to get him to turn down the air conditioning in this building before. >> motion. motion for them to take

this disease a little more seriously, please. >> i think it's great they're working together to get stuff done like turning the air conditioning down. don't they have a janitor? thanks, jimmy fallon. president obama, meanwhile, overseas but that is not slowing down the talk of executive policy. >> executive action on immigration still promised by year's end but it is still unclear whether it will all happen. >> senior white house correspondent ed henry is traveling with the president. he is live in rangoon, burma with the latest. mr. ed. you know what i mean. >> good morning, guys. i'll get to the timing in a moment but you've got the president here in burma, and he was at the home of aung su chi where she had been under house arrest for 20 careers and was saying burma can't backslide here. they've got to make this

transition from a military dick -- military dictator to a full democracy. the president said when he gets back to washington he'll be moving closer to immigration that republicans are charging will violate the american constitution. quite a contrast in what the president was saying at this news conference. he said the congress failed to act so he's going to go his own way. speaker john boehner says the problem is the president is misreading what voters were saying in that midterm election drubbing. >> i indicated to speaker boehner several months ago that if in fact congresso act ie all the lawful authority that i possess to try to make the system work better. and that's going to happen. that's going to happen before the end of the year. >> every administration needs this and needs that, needs all kinds of things. and, you know, if he wants to go off on his own, there are things that he's just

not going to get. >> what speaker boehner is referring to is that come december 11, the government is going to run out of money. that continuing resolution will be done and they need a new one. so boehner is saying if the president bulls ahead next week before they finish budget talks and goes ahead with his executive action that may blow up the budget talks and he won't get a continuing resolution, maybe the government shuts down. also he wants nominations to go through. for example, loretta lynch is picked to be attorney general. the president wants that to go through. harry reid is still nominally in charge of the senate during this lame duck session. so there is a split, i'm told, among the president's advisors. on one side some of his advisors are saying wait until these budget talks are done with, announce these actions on immigration until december. and i'm told h.r. -- harry reid is telling the president to do that as well. i'm told there are other advisors close to the president saying

republicans are going to be done either way. get this done next week when you come back from asia and deal with the consequences. this is going to be a storm no matter which way the president picks. >> even though he's out of town, trouble overseas. ed, even though you're in burma, there is a problem this with isis? >> well, no. the president, you know, didn't talk about it at this news conference, but the problem is obviously militants around the world. the president has been talking about perhaps a new strategy to deal specifically with the situation in syria and this have been reports suggesting that he is wanting a dramatic shift in course. the white house is sort of trying to down play that and saying that they're doing just a general review to change the strategy. the bottom line is when i asked the president at that news conference about a week ago back in washington whether we're winning or not, he said he can't say that we are yet. it's very clear they're going to be tweaking that

strategy in the days ahead. >> got you. he's in rangoon, burma, this morning. and maybe reuniting with al qaeda. >> i saw that. they had a meeting. they got together and they said, you know what? we threw you out, isis says of al qaeda. we threw you out awhile back because you weren't up to our standards. welcome to the club. >> we turn now to heather childers who has some more headlines for us. i'm just so happy to keep looking over. >> we're once again glad to have you back. you mentioned this a moment ago, this tiger. forget werewolves in london. there is a tiger on the loose in paris. look at that. wildlife experts, police, all of them along with specially trained hunting dogs on the hunt for this big cat spotted in a very small town just a few miles

confusing. he's pulling the race card telling "the los angeles times" that he was fighting with his girlfriend and because of what went on in missouri with the shooting of michael brown he was afraid of what police might think. shaw has been suspended indefinitely. >> what is the best way to make sure your automobile is safe? stick the c.e.o. inside and start shooting at him. this is no joke. the c.e.o. at detectives armoring corporation, he is inside taking a seat in the armored car so one of his colleagues can shoot him with an ak-47. those cars apparently do work. he never was injured, not at all. we're told he didn't even flinch. no way. no way, no way would i ever do that. >> that was really him inside there? >> yes.

sides of the aisle is this was a humble ebola ebola, authentic. they agreed with him. they thought he need to do do a better job. it was something everybody agreed oven the only question voters on both sides said was this real? they wanted to see him put his money where his mouth was in the coming weeks. >> here is one on the sec controlling the internet. >> to put these protections in place, i'm asking the fcc to reclassify internet service under title 2 of a law known as the telecommunications act. in plain english, i'm asking them to recognize that for most americans, the internet has become an essential part of everyday communication and everyday life. the fcc is an independent agency and ultimately the decision is theirs alone. but the public has already commented nearly 4 million times asking the fcc to make sure that consumers, not the cable company, gets to decide which sites they use. americans are making their voices heard and standing up for the principles that make the

internet a powerful force for change. as long as i'm president, that's what i'll be fighting for, too. >> let's see the grade on that one. now, lee, i got to tell you, i'm standing there, listening to that. i want to give him an f for that. >> really? >> 'cause i don't believe anything he just said. i think they want to control the internet and that's really what they're going after. how did you give him a b minus? >> voters said this is peaks and valleys. people agreed with him. then when he got to talk about the fcc as an independent agency and ultimately it's their decision alone, people don't believe that the fcc is an independent agency. they think it's a government agency and they think they're in his pocket. so people started to dip on that. then he said it's ultimately their decision alone. no one really liked that because what they said is he's preemptively saying that his hands are tied and so he's already giving the excuse. so people really didn't -- >> he outlined the reasons why i would give him an f for that comment, at least the comment, certainly the idea of controlling the internet through

now what's going on in the world. >> that was so happy. which was tears of joy. >> over overwhelmed. not often am i without words. >> now i have to go to this story, which is not a good story at all. while you were sleeping, a man with a knife tries to enter the main gate at the submarine base in connecticut. two navy officers were actually injured trying to take him down. one of those stabbed in the leg. right now the suspect is in custody and those officers are out of the hospital. so why wasn't an attack dog unleashed on the man who scaled the white house fence? the agent in charge, on his cell phone. it's just one of the many mistakes homeland security points to in its brand-new review of the security breach. agents claimed to have a difficult time seeing omar gonzalez racing across the white house lawn. listen to this, the one officer who did scuffle with gonzalez, she accidentally grabbed her

flashlight and not her baton. america's cell phones are being watched closer than you ever might have imagined. there is a brand-new report just out claiming that the justice department is scooping up data from thousands of phones through devices on small private airplanes that are flying right above your head. it was meant to catch criminals, but innocent people caught in the crossfire. and finally, president george w. bush opening up about the difficult time when his father was fighting for his life in the icu in 2012. in an exclusive interview, sean hannity, he says he tried o keep his whole family strong and he told them not to cry. >> yeah, i said, i don't want the last image of us to be us weeping around you. so we get over there and it's in an icu unit, methodist hospital. barbara and ken are play flee rubbing his head and trying o

bring him comfort. he leans over and rub's jenna's belly and he said, there is death and there is the beauty of life, and of course we all wept. i was convinced this would be the last time. i gave him a kiss and would be the last time i'd see him. i underestimated him. >> definitely. president h.w. bush was in the hospital for about seven weeks, but he did recover. he was well enough to go sky diving this year for his 90th birthday. love those family ties. your family ties, too, lots of cheers around here this morning. >> nothing more important than family. absolutely. thanks for bringing us that. tear he was joy and emotion for sure. >> we're glad to have you back. >> steve, i have a question, if i said something off the cuff and it was kind of a mistake, but i said i just did it once, would you excuse that? >> people say things and sometimes you want a do over, if do you it once.

>> what if we have more examples on tape of me doing the same thing, or what if we had jonathan gruber calling the american people stupid a bunch of times? watch this. >> the dirty secret in massachusetts is the feds pay for our bill. in massachusetts, we have a very powerful senator, ted kennedy. he has basically figured out, him and smart people figured out a way to rip off the feds for $400 million a year. people say north texas you can't tax my benefits. it feels like. so what we think about was how could we make this work? obama is like, well, look, i can't just do this. he said it's just not going to happen politically. the bill will not has. how do we get there through phases. that's called the catholic tax tax -- cadillac tax. barak obama is not a stupid man of the he knew when he was running for president that the american public doesn't care that much about the uninsured. what the american public cares about is cost.

>> he's right about that. we've been talking about professor jonathan gruber over the last couple of days. he has let the cat out of the bag. he has made it very clear that the democrats knew the only way they could get the affordable care act, also known as obamacare, passed was to build this whole smoke screen and build it on live. remember it was the president who said they'd be able to bend the cost curve down so it wouldn't cost us more. you know what? professor gruber admits we have no idea how to do that. so a lot of the stuff we were sold, not true. can you imagine if this video and this guy had come out before the election? >> and exploiting the idea and how condescending is it to assume the american people wouldn't know or didn't care or too stupid to figure out what was coming their way and to know about it. he says right there, the president is not dumb. he knew about it. >> they were all in on it! >> go forward and pass this. the changes that are coming, they're hit -- they're paying

for it, is what americans will be doing. take a look. first of all, the penalties are going to triple right here to $325 per person, or 2% of the income, whatever is higher right here. this is one of the first changes you're going to want to note and dr. siegle brought this to us this morning and we are clearly reiterating here for you so you can take some notes here and know what's coming your way. the cheapest plan will face changes. >> this is one of the most important plans. 9% it will increase. one of the -- i went to dr. gruber's web site. he broke down what he was expecting. in it 2015 and in 2016 when the plans are supposed to be fully implemented, the costs were supposed to be dramatically less. none of this has happened so far. we're three, four years into this and it's still not starting to bend the cost curve down. every single year, health care premiums are going up for families, individuals, for employers, across the board.

so the problem is, they were trying to figure out a way to fool the public into voting for it because it was going to work. they fooled the public, but it's not working. >> it's failing the public. >> as i mentioned, it was supposed to bring costs down. they were going to bend the cost curve down. whatever that meant. just a fabrication. there are eight states that are facing double digit increases in the cost of your premiums coming up next year. louisiana, kansas, iowa, pennsylvania, virginia, north carolina, south carolina, and tennessee. i think there is some states where things will go down. but this those states, we know that things are going to go up. so eric, to your earlier question about dr. gruber, if somebody says something one time and it wasn't right, you give them a pass. but we've got all this tape where they were saying it for years. and usually it was in confidence, there wasn't a video camera. for some odd reason, he felt

obligated to spill the beans. >> this was the consultant of obamacare. mentioned numerous times by and democrats evenh she has admitting hey, this guy was touted as an expert here from m.i.t. who had great numbers on how this was going to succeed on the backs of ignorant american. >> there is a new term out there. grubering, or you're pulling a gruber. you're being a gruber. it means perpetrating a hoax. >> send us your tweets with that hash tag. have you been grubered. >> how have you been grubered? >> don't gruber me, bro. >> whoa! >> don't gruber me, bro. >> we're not going to gruber you. we're going to smother you with tweets because you're back. a lot of you were sending in tweets. one says, we love you, elisabeth. welcome home. >> i love you, too. >> another says, so good to see you again and praising god for his healing hand over you.

absolutely. >> remember about a year ago we were down at the robertsons "duck dynasty"? >> yes. >> willie tweeted, glad to see you. the good lord needed you longer on this earth. >> you know what, you give everybody a hug there for me. i love that family. i have lo tell you. i appreciate that. i have some momming to do on that note. thanks to that. >> you've got some anchoring to do. >> thanks to all of you. thanks for being patient with my healing and to be back. you take good care of me. thanks. >> you can count on it. >> on this friday, you saw that obamacare architect calling american voters stupid. but what if you were watching the mainstream media? are the networks protecting the president's prize health indication legislation. first they couldn't play in class. now they can't play at recess. one school controversial plan to run religion right off of campus. ♪

his condescending comments on how democrats passed obamacare, enough to make many

americans cringe. >> clever basic exploitation of the lack of economic understanding of the american voter. basically call it the stupidity of the american voter or whatever, but basically that was really, really critical to getting the thing to pass. >> now democrats are fighting to distance themselves from those comments made by obamacare architect jonathan grewer and it seems the main stream media is doing the same thing. they have dedicated three minutes of coverage between all three networks. how is that possible? joining us right now with reaction is a columnist for the boston herald. good morning to you. >> good morning. great to be with you. it's just incredible, the media bias we're experiencing, the fact that the main stream media won't cover this major news story. >> absolutely. i mean, this is one of the biggest pieces of legislation of our generation and as dr. gruber has revealed, it is based upon a

lie. you would think the people down the street from where i'm standing at the other networks would say, this is a big story! it impacts every american potentially. we should be covering it. >> absolutely. the american people were lied to. the obama administration and mr. gruber knowingly put language in obamacare on the legislation that would deceive the american people and deceive some of the government agencies to pass it. also and it's just wrong. it's blatant corruption and the main stream media absolutely has an ethical responsibility to be covering this major bombshell and the fact they're not shows they're engaging in media malpractice. >> who are they covering for? is this for the president? is it for the people who were involved in it? is it for democrats? is it for hillary? >> it's for everyone who is a democrat. basically to protect president obama who they've been protecting since day one, since even prior to his inauguration. they protected him on the campaign trail as candidate

obama. and they're protecting hillary clinton or possibly elizabeth warner. she runs in 2016 because this makes democrats look bad. their signature piece of legislation, lied to the american people, and on top of it, mr. gruber has insulted the entire country by calling us stupid. and i remember when mitt romney was running for president in 2012, when he made that 47% comment, the mainstream media had no trouble covering that relentlessly to embarrass him, to turn an election and to hurt republicans. but now when a key architect of president obama's signature legislation calls the entire population stupid, they're not covering it. it's just incredible. >> well, as we have talked about a lot on this channel and your newspaper as well, there is a double standard in this country. so it's our job to point it out. thank you very much for joining us. >> great to be here.

daughter. the movie still has those moments where it makes you laugh so hard, you cry. and it's that smart, dumb humor. the humor is so dumb -- but it works in such a way where you find it's cleverly written, it's so stupid, but it makes you laugh. for me, i was ten years old when i saw the first film. i remember sitting in a movie theater, laughing so hard. so it kind of brought me back to that nostalgia feeling. i will say, it's not as memorable or as classic or as quotable as the original. it's not as solid as the original, but it still makes you laugh. if you're a fan of the first movie, i do recommend it. i will say this, one of the funniest scenes in the film is at the end of the credits. so you have to sit through the credits and watch it. very, very funny. >> i understand you actually talked to jim carey about that chipped tooth thing, right? >> right. i remember when i was ten years old, i was in the theater like, how do they make his tooth look like it's chipped, 'cause you can see the space in between where the tooth is.

i sat down with them to ask that exact question 20 years later. here is his answer. >> for about, i don't know, five years of my life, i had a chip in my tooth just like lloyd because my best friend, clark, and i were in detention and he looked outside. we were fooling around. i heard someone coming, put my head down on the desk. he looked outside, saw there was no one there. did the entire length of the classroom and a cannon ball on my skull. and i can see it now still in slow motion, the chip flying across the room. it was handed to me in an envelope by sister mary john and sent me home and said, you had such beautiful teeth. the lord loved your teeth. >> where is clark? >> i don't know. but he was bottle fed 'til he was about eight. >> all right. so how many stars? >> i gave it 3 1/2 out of five. not as good as the original film. but if you're a fan of the original, i definitely recommend it. i thought it was well worth the wait, over 20 years.

just don't go in expecting it to be as classic as the original movie. it's definitely funny. >> did you send something to elisabeth on her return? >> i did. it was funny. i sent it last week. it got shipped back to me because the postage wasn't enough. >> oh, sure. that line. >> i put 1.50. it was supposed to be 2.10. you'll get it today. there is a funny movie in there that you and i talk about on e-mail. it's really cool. >> i think i know what it might be. >> by the way, steve, i want to tell you, i thought peter did an unbelievable job with that interview. i think he was rivetted and did he an unbelievable job. >> how many stars? >> five out of five. >> unbelievable. >> by the way, i saw it in the trades yesterday. the peter doocy special, the man who killed osama bin laden, highest rated special in the history of the fox news channel.

they passed immigration reform. we did have an opportunity. it didn't work out. now the president saying he's going to take an executive order action. as you know, he's taken i believe 193 executive order actions. that's less than clinton, bush, and reagan, but again, let's see what he does next week or sometime after that. >> well, the department of justice is essentially not enforcing the rules of the law, as you know. you mentioned president reagan. he did work with the democrats for essentially an amnesty or clemency for millions of people who were in the country illegally. congressman, you know that part of the deal that reagan struck with the democrats was he said, i will sign this provided you secure the border. then he said, okay. mr. president, we're going to secure the border. they didn't secure the border. you know that's the problem right now. the republicans want to do something about immigration reform. everybody would like to see this problem fixed. but it's got to start with fixing the border.

if the president signs executive amnesty, that ain't gonna do it. >> the question makes an exemption that the democrats have controlled the congress since president reagan, which is not true. under bush, both the house and the senate were under republican, majority of the time -- >> that deal was very clear, it was -- they're going to secure the border. >> let me finish. let me finish. let me finish. let me just finish the question, please. so they had an opportunity to secure the border. in fact, we have increased the border patrol more than ten times since 1984. and again, i live on the border. i see that. i just saw the latest f.b.i. statistics. the crime rate at the border is safer than the national crime rate. here in washington, the murder rate for 100,000 is about 15, almost 16 murders per 100,000 in laredo is less than three murders per 100,000.

again, i want to secure the border. i want to work bipartisan. i hope we can do it. >> to that point, and this is where the american people are sensing an issue because we're hearing from the administration that no one is working together, no one can compromise, therefore, i have to use executive action. but we're hearing from the president, yet trey gowdy, republican, said this last night about working with you. >> why captain he give the republican house and senate three months, six months, nine months to do what he wasn't able to do in two years? there are democrats that we welcome the chance to work with. louis gutierrez, while i disagree with him on policies, imminently trustworthy participant. so is one from california. >> mentioned you and two others. there are democrats here and republicans working to stretch across the aisle. you want to talk about border, why is the administration, why is the president placing a wall up right now and we've got newly elected officials that could get in there and actually work towards compromise and a bill that the americans would actually prefer? >> and i believe in compromise.

i've been bipartisan and i don't mind standing up to the white house whether it's a democrat or republican, the white house to do what the american public wants to do. again, even when president bush, president bush was a good friend of mine from texas. he wanted immigration reform. even the republicans at that time when they controlled, there was no immigration reform. it's both sides that we need to work together. >> there is no working together. president obama said -- i'm going to sign this if you guys want to put a bill together, put it on my desk. if i don't like it, i'm gog veto that bill and we're gog stay with my -- going to stay with my executive action. every once in a while they say there is free ice cream in the lobby. guess what happens. everyone from every one of the floors makes sure they get down to get free ice cream in the lobby. so when president obama says i'm signing amnesty for 4 1/2 million illegals who are here currently, what do you think is going to happen? how many more illegals are going to come across the border

saying, hey, it may be 4 1/2 million now, but i want part of that free ice cream. i want to get inside the border because it might be 15 million or 20 million down the road. >> you know, talking about ice cream, if you wait too long before you get to the ice cream, it's going to melt. we've been waiting for immigration reform and again, it's the fault of both sides. >> so they'll run over here. president obama -- >> let me finish, let me finish. >> congressman, do you deny that's the case, that people will not rush here if indeed the president moves forward with this executive action? you deny? >> let me go back to the original question. i wasn't given the opportunity again. i want to see a bipartisan -- there are democrats and republicans, like myself, that have sat down, have talked about working together on an immigration reform. we now have gone to point where people have gone to the corners. that's wrong. the american people are just sick and tired of this

partisanship. we need to get together. we were not sent up here to washington to do the easy things. immigration is very emotional, i understand, but we got to do it. by the way, not everybody crosses through the southern border. 40% of the 11 or 12 million undocumented came in through a legal permanent visa so we have to be clear on how to security border. >> henry cuellar, democrat from texas, thank you very much for a spirited conversation on this. i'm starving now. >> we have cake instead. thank you, congressman. >> what time do you think the ice cream shop opens? >> i don't know. but i'll race you there. coming up, an entire town divided over proposed big government ban on tobacco. >> you people make me sick. what did they think was going to happen here tonight? this is a hot button issue. >> won't that ban put hard working store owners out of business?

he ran 239 miles all the way from washington to new york: captain jason, awesome job, sir. >> good morning. >> good morning to you. >> why did you do it? >> why did i do it? well, over the prolonged wars in iraq and afghanistan, we lost so many wonderful marines, soldiers, airmen and law enforcement people that helped with our efforts over there. i really think that the american people needed to kind of

understand and appreciate what the real cost of the war was, which are the loss of america's best and brightest that we always send into harm's way. and kind of get an appreciation for what amazing people that raised their right hand, stepped forward and pledged to defend freedom and we took the fight to the bad guys and kept the homeland safe. >> aside from raising awareness, did you also raise money for the cause? >> there is an organization that supports fallen service members and law enforcement. it's the marine corps law enforcement foundation. they're founded in the mid 90s. their mission is to provide scholarships to the children of the fallen. >> it's a wonderful group. >> they are. i can't think of a better thing for me having a son that if i were not here to have one last burden on those that are left behind and to insure their children have the best opportunities to do whatever they can in the future. >> they do that every year. was it a struggle this year, because i read somewhere that

before you ran this 239 miles, you weren't feeling too good. >> well, i had done this twice before. then i had to take last year off because i got back from afghanistan. and i still had some contracted health issues that were dogging me and i went in for a surgery three weeks before i started the run. to i pretty much had three weeks before the marathon and the other 213 miles where i wasn't able to run. >> your doctor gave you the okay to do that? >> well, we marines are a little thick headed and strong minded. so when we have a mission or a goal in front of us, we just charge boldly forward. >> so people need to understand, this is like running ten marathons. you did it over a period of time, but ten marathons. great job. we also want to know where can people go to help? >> i'm sorry? >> where can people go to help the cause? >> well, they can go to my facebook page and they can read about the fallen and see the stories about them to understand

uncertainty. >> you worried that it might be cancer? >> sure. and i think that -- they don't tell you any absolutes before you get a tumor out and then those results take time to come. and i was blessed with a peace during that time where i felt as though i had been given the example of my mom battling through cancer and so many women in the industry, in and out and friends at home who faced cancer and moved through it successfully with great fight. and was actually given a clean bill of health and a benign tumor. no extra parting. many people don't get that diagnosis. and i've seen many cases of that as well throughout our family. i'm just beyond thankful. you have all been an extraordinary family. i don't use that word lightly, family to me, mr. ailes, the entire production staff, everybody on this floor today, you're all family to me and you gave me such support. thank you. >> we are so happy you're back. >> how did the children react when you told them that everything was going to be okay?

>> that possibility is the one part we didn't share with them. we shared a lot with them. they made me a -- i came home one day and i said we have to pray. i need to -- mommy needs to find a surgeon to take this thing out of my tummy that's bothering me. the next day when i was confirmed to have the surgery, i said, make it for mommy. i ran through it, help me, and they were prayerful and i think when i got home, they didn't like seeing mama hurt. i got a lot of momming left to do. i plan on healing up to 100% in no time. and i'm so, so thankful. >> this is what happens when you're married to an nfl quarterback, you make a tunnel. >> i was hoping we would do a tunnel here. >> she's back and we're glad she's back and talking to geraldo about the news of the

massachusetts is the feds pay for our bill. okay? in massachusetts, we have a very powerful senator, ted kennedy. he had basically figured out, and he smart people figured out a way to rip off the feds for $4 million a year. people say you can't tax my benefits. so what we think about, how could, talked about how could we make this work? obama is like, well -- he's a realistic guy. i can't just do this. he said it's not going to happen politically. the bill will not pass. how do we manage to get there through phases. that's called the genesis of the cadillac tax. barak obama is not a stupid man. okay? he knew when he was running for president that quite frankly, the american public doesn't actually care that much about the uninsured. what the american public cares about is cost. >> we all care about cost. >> is that the guy from "saturday night live"? >> kind of looked like him, doesn't it? we want you to weigh in on this. so he's revealing as one of the architects, obamacare is built

on deception and tortured language and essentially a lie. >> there is no defending it. it's clear that we have revealed the dirty underbelly of politics and the fact that they will do or say anything to get legislation passed. he has been, you know, frank about the deception and they say when people make a mistake that sometimes they tell the truth. and he has been telling the truth and what is revealed is that the tax on the healthy has been disguised and that's what it was. healthy people basically were not told that they will be supporting unhealthy people in terms of subsidizing insurance. i think that is a big revelation. i think the one thing that has been lacking maybe in the discussion is that there is plenty of deception to go arounh all of this talk of death panels and you are going to be limbed, socialized medicine. you couldn't go to the doctor of your choice and so forth. there is a lot of

misrepresentation. to sort it out now, this is the one thing i caution, if the republicans now seize this as the obsession to get rid of obamacare and senator ted cruz leads the faction in the united states senate that says wait a second, we won't pass any funding bills unless you repeal obamacare, they'll attach the funding bill to the obamacare repeal. the president will veto it. we'll have no government. is that what we want? no government, no movement now. we've got to compromise. >> we talked about obamacare for a very long time in the run up to the actual jamming it through the congress. but just the fact that -- you can say that there is deception on both sides of the aisle. it's rare that it is televised. >> and record. >> there is no doubt that the man reveals exactly how they decided to manipulate public opinion to get majority support,

to get it passed as they did in the united states senate. i only say, i remember very clearly sarah palin and death panels and there was a lot of -- >> o make that leap -- >> look, look -- >> she wasn't the architect of ebola ebola. >> they were concern -- obamacare is. >> we have a guy that called the american people stupid. that's one thing. the bigger problem is it's not work. the bigger problem is they perpetrated this big hoax to get it passed, thinking it was going to work and it's not working. and people should talk about look what they've done to us. they fooled us. they screwed us and now it's not working. maybe it is time -- it's not to repeal, but repeal parts of it, some of the pieces -- the bipartisan -- >> if this plan had worked, you just said h it not failed and if they were deceived in order to

get it passed, nancy pelosi would be taking credit for mentioning gruber's name. right? she wouldn't be denying him, like judas, three times. she has denied him repeatedly. she doesn't even know who he is on video. does she know him or not? >> the thing about the medical device tax, why is it that the medical device tax is so irksome to many on the republican side of the aisle? >> actually both sides. >> i must say, it doesn't bother me and i think that a lot of the opposition to the medical device tax is coming from the medical device manufacturers who want to maximize their profits. i think that they are using this and i think you're accurate, eric, that the law has been very uneven in its effectiveness. so the medical device manufacturers are saying, aha, let's seize on this flaw in the bill to get rid of this onerous

tax we have to pay. >> it's another cost for health care. she was talk ago little bit about nancy pelosi. -- we got more cake. this gruber thing is very -- >> grubergate. >> it's embarrassing for the democrats, no doubt about it going forward. here is nancy pelosi just yesterday, and then we're going to play her back in the day. she says she doesn't know him. she knows him. watch. >> i don't know who he is. he didn't help write our bill. let's put him aside. i don't know if you have seen jonathan gruber's m.i.t. analysis of the -- of what the comparison is to the status quo and versus what is in our bill, those who seek insurance within the exchange. >> okay. so she knew him -- >> it is a gotcha. no doubt about it. nancy pelosi, the minority leader has been revealed as someone who has been manipulating public opinion. that's a given. i absolutely agree that this is

a real complication for the obama administration's intent to defend this bill. >> we're the only channel that's talking about it. how wrong is that? >> that's a different issue. >> but elisabeth is 100% write. if premiums were going down on have gone down or look like they're going down, nancy pelosi, remember that jonathan gruber, he was so amazing. yeah. he said some bad things, but look what he's done. >> there are people who were not insured who now are insured. now, it may be that you object to the subside -- subsidizing -- don't you agree with me that if this is the fight that republicans decide to wage, then it will go down exactly this -- >> what exactly is it?

>> you want to fund the government at the end of the year? you want to fund the government, you got to repeal obamacare. president obama will veto it. there is not enough votes to override his veto. that means deborah will do nothing at all. >> basically the administration and this guy seem to have said, the americans are so dumb. if we can let them know we know better than they do. >> we're not going to fight about immigration? >> no, no. >> thanks for the roses. >> they are beautiful. >> you should be so proud. you have so much going on. >> welcome back. >> geraldo, thank you very much. real quick, headlines with heather. >> some stories we've been following for you. while you were sleeping, a strange man with a knife tried to enter the main gate at a base in groton, connecticut.

earlier this year, we told you about numerous shocking security breaches at the

minneapolis-spall international airport, including the discovery of a home-grown terrorist working on planes. now an unguarded exit revealing even more gaps in security. investigative reporter tom lyden from minneapolis joins us with the details. tell us exactly about the new round of security breaches at this airport. >> reporter: yeah. this is pretty interesting. so we had a passenger arriving from france about a month ago, wanted to get a smoke right after he came off the plane. after arriving in customs, he went out the exit. we call checkpoint 7. went out that door, had a quick cigarette and when someone was coming out of the exit, he slipped right back through. there is no tsa agent at that exit. like there are the other exits at the airport. it was about an hour before they found this guy. so the solution the tsa had literally, window dressing, last week they put up this film over this window, this opaque film so you can't see in or out of the

airport. they're hoping that deters people from going up those stairs, which lead right back into the g concourse right inside the airport. but this isn't the only time it's happened. couple weeks before that, we had some travelers from minot. they went out the exit, right past the tsa agent, had a quick smoke and went right back through the exit past the same tsa agent. they were on the flight to minot before the airport actually figured this out. we've also had a couple travels from tokyo who went through an unmanned metal detector. we have had this series of lapses. the tsa won't comment to us about any of this. they had no comment. i even told them i was going to be on "fox & friends" this morning. they still had no comment. they have been about as transparent as their new won't treatment. >> we have a comment from them. but first, the reason why this really matters, this airport is the same airport where a home-grown terrorist was caught. we found out that he was working there. that's why this -- you would think an airport with such high

profile security lapses would tighten the security a little bit. >> even tsa and their own documents admit the insider threat, as they call it, is a very worse kind. probably our most vulnerable part of airport security right now. you referred to the airport worker, he was known as another name. he had a badge which gave him access to the tarmac and the planes. first he was an airport fueler. then he was an airport cleaner. later years later, he would go and fight and die for isis in syria. by the way, we have a report coming -- >> we're running out of time. you took a picture, we have the picture. explain to us what we're seeing. >> i think it's the irony here. we don't have a tsa agent where they frosted the glass, yet i went right upstairs to the passenger ticketing area. you had a dozen tsa agents standing this with no passengers. they were talking to themselves.

they were professional, but still, the irony that you have a dozen tsa agents upstairs, but you can't put them downstairs, we had to laugh. >> we'll be right back

[ snoring ] [ male announcer ] zzzquil, the non habit forming sleep aid that helps you sleep easily and wake refreshed. because sleep is a beautiful thing. it's rumored that if president obama is planning to announce a new ten-part immigration plan before thanksgiving. and you thought your family wouldn't have anything to argue about this year. >> i wonder if they were going to be arguing about it this

weekend on the chris wallace show. fox news sunday. chris joins us every friday at this time. chris, would you like to say welcome back to elisabeth hasselbeck? >> i certainly would. elisabeth, we missed you and it's good to have you back and good you're back in good health. we really have missed you. >> thank you. it is pretty great to be back here. good to see you from this perspective because i've been watching from home. thanks for hanging with us this morning. >> good. >> let's start with what he was just talking about. the president's got this plan, looks like executive amnesty down the pike. politically, is this good or bad >> for whom? >> exactly. >> anybody. >> i think -- well, i don't know. i suppose one could argue for the p the in terms of keeping step with his base -- had is a

political president, so i don't think he would do it if he thought it was bad for his legacy, and remember, he's not running again. so he can say, i kept faith with hispanics in doing this. the problem is that it conceivably could make it because it's going to make it so politically toxic, even harder to get some kind of a bill through congress that will stand the test of time. of course, if a republican comes in and a republican president in two years, he could simply veto or rescind the executive action and it goes out the window. >> we spoke -- i think a lot of people just sort of i think hope that arrestant here -- our established here has a system where things can get passed the way our founding fathers dreamed that they would and hoped they would, actually wrote that they would. chris, we spoke to congressman cuellar today. he said a bipartisan bill is actually possible. he actually hoped for that rather than executive action here. take a listen.

>> i clearly believe that we should have a legislative or bilegislative solution to this, just like president reagan and the democrats did in 1986 when they passed immigration reform. we did have an opportunity, it didn't work out. and now the president is saying he's going to take an executive order, action. i want to see a bipartisan. there are democrats and republicans like myself that have sat down, have talked about working together on an immigration reform. we now have gone to a point where people have gone to the corners. that's wrong. >> okay. so there you got a democrat saying he would like do something bipartisan. on the heels of the mid terms last week when the president said i hear you, and then for him to do this where he just says, ah, forget about those guy, i got my pen and phone, i'm going to do this, is this what people want? people want the immigration system fixed. but not this way. >> i agree with you. and you certainly have the history of the fact that this president not once, but several

times when he had been asked to take executive action and said he didn't have the authority to do it. i remember during the 2012 campaign, he had an interview on univision and obviously that question came up and he said, that just isn't the way it works. and congressional laws restrict me. i can understand the impatience of the immigration reform advocates and even of the president. the fact is that the senate passed a bipartisan bill in 2013 and it went absolutely nowhere in the republican house. not only didn't they pass the senate bill, they didn't pass any bill. so i understand that. but on the other hand, just because you can't get it through congress doesn't mean you can do it on your own. as else said, that's not -- as elisabeth said, that's not how we learned it in civics class. >> president obama said he's going to get it done in december because in january, they swear in a new republican senate. so he wants to do this with

himself. he wants to own this. i mean, come on. the man is clearly playing politics. we should be highlighting that fact. >> well, i think he probably has some legitimate concerns about it and i think there is frustration because he was told by john boehner, i'm going to pass something and he didn't. so it's not like republicans are blameless in this. they've two years. they've had more years than that. but they've a number of years to pass something. but they never have. having said that, i don't know that that gives the president the authority to say, well okay. i'll pick up my marbles and do it by executive action. you're talking about 6 million people who are in this country illegally. one of the interesting things about the timing, and this is the other aspect of this that is so interesting -- is that there are republicans -- a split in the republican party about how to deal with this because the government runs out of funding in december. some people are talking tea party members especially in congress about shutting down the

government. and the leaders, mitch mcconnell, john boehner, saying no way. we've done that before on obamacare. we got killed on that. we're not going to shut down the government. it's going to be a real fight to see where the republican party stands, how hard they're going to oppose this. >> yeah, you're right. let's switch gears for just a second. this jonathan gruber guy, this professor at m.i.t. has embarrassed the president, the administration, democrats in general because he said obamacare based on lies. regot a little tape for you. nancy pelosi. here she is yesterday, and then we've cut a little piece of tape back in 2009. yesterday she says sheading -- she didn't know him. back in 2009 she loved him. >> i don't know who he is. he didn't help write our bill. let's put him aside. i don't know if you have seen jonathan gruber m.i.t.'s analysis of what the comparison is to the status quo versus what

we'll have in our bill. >> i got a feeling you're going to be talking about #gruberred this weekend on fox news sunday. >> she may not know who he is, but everyone else does. >> all i can say is i wish she had been a guest on of course news sunday because if you know how i like to conduct my interviews, cross-examinations, i would have loved to have nancy pelosi in the hot seat and said what, do you think of jonathan grewer and said i don't know him and say, that's funny. >> what about jonathan gruber? >> look at this guy. is it the same john gruber? it's just one of those wonderful moments where don't believe my words, you know. from 2009, believe what i say now. on the show on sunday, we're going to be talking about climate change. we're going to have john thune, one of the top leaders in the republican party. you've got it keystone pipeline bill, the climate change deal. we're going to talk to two of the new senators, republican

senators tom cotton and james langford. we will be talking about climate change and immigration and obamacare. so lots to talk about. and gruber. #gruber. >> thank you, have a great sunday. we'll be watching. >> see you guys. good to have you back, elisabeth. >> it's go to be here. i'll see you sunday. 18 before the top of the hour on this friday. still ahead, america's most popular comedian just meeted a whirlwind world tour. what happened when one country told him you got to censor your act. he responds next. ♪ ♪

he's on his book tour apparently. is that correct? >> i think so. >> look at this. this is the graphic. it shows steve, elisabeth and brian and apparently eric is down in the bottom -- you should be sitting on steve's knee. >> where a achmed. >> oh, you like him better, fine. >> he's a terrorist. >> six of the countries we went to, english was not the native tongue. so we ended up in places like kuala lumpur -- >> you screwed it up! >> so there we were in the middle of the middle east in abu dhabi. i found minimum self in front of 5,000 preliminaries with the bad terrorist. >> how did that go? >> jeff is pretty much an idiot.

>> they loved it. >> did they laugh? >> they knew all the characters. the world is such a small place because of social media and youtube. then the crazy part was two days later when the middle of tel aviv, israel doing the exact same show for 5,000 jewish people. it was nuts. >> you said terrorist. >> it was achmed the dead terrorist. >> did you ever think, i should not have done that? >> actually i will tell the story. jeff walked out of the house in los angeles before the tour thinking this may be the last time we ever come to this house! >> i didn't know. right before the show in abu dhabi, my manager says we have to delay the show ten minutes. i said, they're not all in yet? they said no, the bomb sniffing dogs have not finished. >> right. >> now, achmed the dead terrorist is right there. he's been part of your act a long time. people love that character.

very, very funny. have you ever had to, like, censor him or change a name or anything like that? >> you know, i'm glad you asked that question. in malaysia, they did not want achmed the dead freaking terrorist. before we left the tour, they called us and said, we're sold out, that's great. but we're not going to allow achmed in militia, because they're a muslim country. but most fans were there because of him. so what i did was i told a trickery there. they said you can't even say achmed, can't say the word virgin or mention anybody's religion. so i had an idea. i didn't tell the audience, 5,000 malaysians. young audience. we got to the end of the show, i said i know you're waiting for one last guy. i said unfortunately, we're not -- we were contacted by your government. but who knew this guy had a

brother. and out of the suitcase, and he's from france. and i pulled it and he looks strikingly similar to achmed the dead terrorist. he had a big french beret and a brilliant french accent. so he did the entire show with jacques the dead french terrorist. >> who was muslim. >> that's right. he's muslim. >> way to blow it, eric. he's muslim, too. that's a joke! >> it was a joke. i was kidding. >> always a pleasure. >> watch the special sunday at 8:00 o'clock on comedy central. it will be a lot of fun. >> without a doubt. >> i love the purple. >> coming up, your well wishes for elisabeth are pouring in. we will read some of them. peanut, maybe you could do some. >> that would be great. ♪ ♪ ♪
